NIROTC cadets. Don Saucier included. assist during graduation ceremonies. IROTC: What a Trip! Eating sea rations will toughen anyone for life's trying problems, so the U.S. Navy ob- viously has the real and true se- crets of survival. From Septem- ber to May the NIROTC unit involves itself in activities which intensify instruction in naval procedures and familiarize cadets with various aspects of Navy life, including sea rations. September's calendar held two Neptune Festival parades and a field trip for the cadets. The unit visited the Marine Corps Reserve Training Center where, besides eating sea ra- tions for lunch, the cadets learned about the intricasies of the Amphibious Landing Craft. The day's experiences were culminated with a ride in the landing craft. October exposed cadets to aspects of Navy life other than the banal waterlogged image, beginning with the senior cadets' visit to the Naval Com- munications Station in Driver, Virginia, on October 5. lump- ing from communication to air maneuvers, the cadets visited the Anti-Submarine Warfare Helicopter Squadron-30 at NAS Norfolk, which presented a command demonstration for the Navy's birthday. October 28 took the cadets to still another facet of the Navy, the United States Naval Academy at An- napolis. There the cadets were familiarized with the overall concept of and philosophy be- hind the Naval Academy and the Navy's mission. As an added attraction, they were able to watch Navy's homecom- ing football game against Pittsburgh. NIROTC prepares the young prospect for what he could en- counter and the careers he could pursue in the Navy, but it does not forget that the cadet also has the role of high school student to fulfill. NIROTC cadets can be seen helping at football games, assemblies, graduations, and career nights. The units drill team and rifle team participate in parades and competitions two of which are held in Orlando, Florida, and Charlottesville, Virginia. Like any of Kellam's teams, the drill and rifle teams bring honor and recognitions to themselves and to the school. Qu! A r A 1 . T... Q 1 A l,.. I i I - -C'f.'
